Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an electric pump which drives a pump by a motor used for, for example, OA equipment, home electric appliances, industrial equipment, medical equipment and so on.
  • a motor includes a rotor and a stator in a motor casing, a rotor shaft extended from the motor casing to a pump-body side and a motor driving circuit substrate.
  • One ends of a pair of connecting rods are respectively assembled to the rotor shaft extended to the pump-body side through a pair of bearings.
  • the pair of connecting rods are respectively assembled to positions where phases are shifted by 180 degrees.
  • the other ends of the pair of connecting rods are respectively coupled to diaphragms through retainers.
  • the diaphragm, a valve seat and a pump head portion are assembled to the pump body.
  • a cylindrical eccentric shaft for cancelling the eccentricity of the pair of connecting rods is assembled to the vicinity of a shaft end of the rotor shaft extended on the pump-body side, and the connecting rods are assembled to the eccentric shaft through the bearings.
  • DE102013003513A1 discloses a compressor arrangement for operating a compressed air supply system of a vehicle, comprising a compressor comprising: an electric motor formed as an electronically commutated, brushless DC motor with a drive circuit comprising power electronics, and a pneumatic compressor.
  • the electric motor is formed in the form of an external rotor motor.
  • the electric pump disclosed in Patent Literature 1 is an outer-rotor type motor in which the rotor of the motor is formed in a cup shape, which is assembled so that a top surface portion of a rotor yoke is directed to the shaft end, in which both ends of the rotor shaft are rotatably supported by a pair of bearings provided in the motor casing on both sides of the rotor yoke in the axial direction.
  • the shaft length of the rotor shaft becomes long and a distance from the bearing (fulcrum) on the motor side to the connecting rod (point of action) becomes long, therefore, the device is increased in size and the rotor shaft tends to vibrate, which will be a factor of noise.
  • the connecting rods are assembled to the eccentric shaft through the bearings after the cylindrical eccentric shaft is assembled to the rotor shaft extended on the pump body side, therefore, backlash or vibration tends to occur due to shaft misalignment between many assembling parts such as the rotation shaft, the eccentric shaft, the bearings and the connecting rods.
  • the present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is an object thereof to provide an electric pump capable of reducing the device size in the axial direction with low vibration and low noise as well as with high rotational stability.
  • the present invention has the following structure in order to achieve the above object.
  • the rotor is integrally assembled to the rotor shaft in the state where the opening of the rotor formed in a cup shape is directed to the shaft end on the motor side, therefore, the intermediate bearing can be arranged closely to the top surface portion of the rotor by using a free space inside the opening of the rotor.
  • the distance from the intermediate bearing to the eccentric cam to which the crank shaft is connected can be reduced as short as possible, thereby suppressing occurrence of vibration and noise as well as reducing the device size in the axial direction by shortening the shaft length of the rotor shaft.
  • the intermediate bearing having a relatively larger diameter is used in an opening of a rotor yoke, thereby improving the rotational stability of the rotor.
  • the eccentric cam is integrally provided with a balance weight portion for cancelling the eccentricity of the crank shaft assembled through the cam bearing.
  • the rotor yoke, the eccentric cam and the balance weight portion are integrally formed, therefore, shaft alignment between components are performed and the eccentricity is cancelled, thereby reducing vibration, the number of components and assembly man hours to improve assembling property.
  • a shaft end of the rotor shaft of the motor extended from the eccentric cam to the crank mechanism side is rotatably supported by a crank side bearing assembled to the case body.
  • the shaft end of the rotor shaft on the crank-mechanism side on which an external force acts is rotatably supported by the crank-side bearing assembled to the case body, thereby suppressing the runout of the rotor shaft.
  • the crank side bearing when the crank side bearing is assembled to the case body through an elastic body, the amount of shaft misalignment between the rotor shaft and the crank-side bearing can be absorbed by deformation of the elastic body as well as vibration at the shaft end of the rotor shaft can be reduced.
  • the intermediate bearing When the intermediate bearing is assembled inside the opening of the rotor closely to the top surface portion of the rotor, the distance between the crank shaft connecting to the eccentric cam and the intermediate bearing can be reduced as short as possible, therefore, vibration of the crank shaft reciprocating by the rotatory drive of the motor is suppressed and occurrence of noise is also suppressed.
  • the intermediate bearing may be formed by plural bearings assembled closely in the axial direction. According to the structure, the rotational stability of the rotor is improved even when small bearings are used.
  • the rotor is formed so that a rotor hub assembled to block an end surface of the rotor yoke formed in a cylindrical shape is integrally assembled to the rotor shaft, and that the rotor is rotatably supported through the intermediate bearing assembled between the rotor hub and a stator housing.
  • the rotor yoke and the rotor hub which form the rotor can be separately manufactured, thereby easily forming the rotor hub and the eccentric cam integrally with shaft alignment.
  • the assembly between the rotor and the rotor yoke as well as the assembly between the rotor hub and the eccentric cam can be easily performed.
  • the rotor is rotatably supported through the intermediate bearing assembled between the stator housing and the rotor hub, therefore, the intermediate bearing provided in the opening of the rotor can be arranged as closely as possible to the eccentric cam, which can reduce the distance between a fulcrum and a point of action and can improve the rotational stability of the rotor.
  • the electric pump may be a diaphragm pump in which the other end of the crank shaft is coupled to a diaphragm facing a pump chamber. Accordingly, a small-sized electric diaphragm pump with less vibration can be provided.
  • an electric pump P has a motor and a crank mechanism driven by the motor are integrally assembled inside a case body 2 which is adjacent to a pump case 1.
  • An outer-rotor type DC brushless motor 3 is used as an example of the motor, and a diaphragm pump 4 is used as an example of the pump.
  • Other pumps such as a piston pump provided with a cylinder and a piston in the case body 2 may be adopted instead of using the diaphragm pump 4.
  • the outer-rotor type DC brushless motor 3 includes a stator 5 and a rotor 6.
  • a motor substrate 8 and a stator core 9 are respectively assembled to a cylindrical stator housing 7 which is fixed to the case body 2.

  • the motor substrate 8 is provided with a sensor substrate on which hall devices and so on are mounted, power feeding terminals to a motor coil and so on.
  • a flexible cable 8a connecting to the motor substrate 8 is drawn out from the case body 2 (see Fig. 1, Fig. 2 ).
  • the not-shown motor coil is wound around pole teeth 9a which are radially formed in the stator core 9.
  • the rotor 6 is formed in a cup shape one end in the axial direction of which opens.
  • a rotor shaft 10 is integrally assembled to a rotor hub 6b which is assembled to block one end surface of a rotor yoke 6a formed in a cylindrical shape. That is, the rotor 6 is integrally assembled so that an opening of the rotor yoke 6a is directed to a shaft end on the motor side and the rotor shaft 10 is pressed into the rotor hub 6b provided on a top surface portion.
  • An annular magnet 6c is provided on an inner peripheral surface of the rotor yoke 6a. The magnet 6c is assembled at a position facing the pole teeth 9a of the stator core 9.
  • An eccentric cam 6d is integrally formed in the rotor hub 6b.
  • a balance weight 6e (counter weight) is further formed in the eccentric cam 6d. This is provided for cancelling the eccentricity of a crank shaft 12 one end of which is assembled to the eccentric cam 6d through a cam bearing 11.
  • the rotor 6 may use the rotor yoke 6a integrally molded in a cup shape by drawing a metal magnetic substance (for example, a galvanized steel sheet), and the eccentric cam 6d may be integrally assembled to a top surface portion of the rotor yoke 6a.
  • a metal magnetic substance for example, a galvanized steel sheet
  • An intermediate bearing 13 is assembled between the stator housing 7 and the rotor hub 6b. That is, the intermediate bearing 13 is provided inside the opening of the rotor 6 closely to the top surface portion (rotor hub 6b).
  • the intermediate bearing 13 rotatably supports the rotor 6. Accordingly, a distance from the intermediate bearing 13 to the eccentric cam 6d to which the crank shaft 12 is connected can be reduced as short as possible, thereby suppressing occurrence of vibration and noise as well as reducing the device size in the axial direction by shortening the shaft length of the rotor shaft 10. Furthermore, as the intermediate bearing 13 is provided inside the opening of the rotor 6 (rotor hub 6b), the rotational stability of the rotor 6 is improved. As for the intermediate bearing 13, plural bearings may be assembled closely in the axial direction.
